Black and Gold 1950s vintage pottery - Mid-Century glam!

I just love this swanky 1950s vase with its glossy black finish covered with a textured gold trim! I buy every single piece of the black with gold 1950s pottery pieces I find, and I'm surprised that they haven't yet become a trend among collectors.

EVERY bedroom bookcase sported these pieces. So did the tops of the t.v.s and two tiered end tables! One of the best things about these pieces is how durable they are. 60 plus years and you rarely see a chip, crack or crazing!

So, since I love them, I declare they are the next vintage trend! What do you think?

Vintage Industrial Chic fan - midcentury modern classic

I spotted this fabulous vintage industrial chic fan made in 1960 at a garage sale where it sat, sad and dusty and forgotten on a bottom shelf.

So I inquired and got it! Don't you just love the sleek midcentury modern design? Not a smidge of plastic on this beauty.

I've learned to take a look around at garage sales at what's NOT on the table...the things I love the best are often thought of by their owners as too old to be salable. And they think an "antique" is a chair or a dish! Authentic vintage at its best here at Any Old Time!
